Pelvic ultrasound shows a 12mm anechoic area, is it serious?

Patient's question:

Health check-up revealed pelvic effusion, pelvic exploration detected an irregular non-echoic area of 12mm, is it serious? Is a follow-up examination necessary?

Doctor's answer:

Do you have symptoms such as abdominal pain, lower abdominal heaviness, and lower back discomfort due to pelvic fluid accumulation? If you don't have these symptoms, medication treatment may not be necessary, and you can follow up with a follow-up ultrasound after some time. Pelvic fluid accumulation is often caused by gynecological inflammation. A small number of people may also have a very small amount of fluid accumulation after menopause. It is recommended to apply cold compresses to the abdomen and maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia. In addition to timely treatment for pelvic fluid accumulation, patients also need to pay attention to their diet, such as eating a balanced diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
